barbless fly patch ( that works :-)

Thank you Mike, duly constructed and attached to vest ... looks like it
should work as well as anything I've seen and I love the price

btw, after a full season of using rods with the grip extended back onto the
reel seat, as per one of your posts, I'm convinced that it is a great
modification I still cast poorly, but no longer draw crowds that point
and laugh as I whip the air to little result g Thanks for the idea,
it was a good one

Most people who have tried such butt modifications like them a lot.

Now we just need to get Wayno fixed up! Or perhaps he can just cut the
horns off?

If you carry a second film can of crushed silica in your vest, then you can
drop the flies into this. Give them a shake, they dry immediately, and can
be immediately re-used. The silica can be "re-generated" in the oven, Ten
minutes at 100°C and it is completely dry again. It is harmless, and may
be obtained almost everywhere very cheaply, or for nothing ( Electrical
good, and drug packaging etc).

The price is about the same!
